'''CPU modes''' are different sets of AI behaviors used by computer players in different games throughout the series. Several are intended for use in [[Training Mode]], while other actions can only be seen performed in various ''[[Melee]]'' [[event match]]es. A few modes are only accessible through the use of ''Melee''{{'}}s {{SSBM|debug menu}}. | '''CPU modes''' are different sets of AI behaviors used by computer players in different games throughout the series.
